approaching nor mal in action would bring a collective sigh of relief to the coaching clan Too the season is coining to a point where every game in con ference competition is important to the contenders or example: Oklahoma boasting winning streak of 23 straight and shooting for an Orange Bowl berth goes against Colorado the only mem ber of the Big Seven capable of giving the Soonerg a fight Colo rado certainly expected to win' but the Buffs had the per sonnel to give Bud out fit a run Texas A and the upstart of the Southwest Conference col lided with Baylor with the loop lead at Starke The only thing cer tain about this upset happy con ference is its uncertainty Bear Aggies however have the entire loop a twitter although they are not eligible for the Cotton Bowl this year
